In this article we explore how Swedish welfare politics within health-care and rehabilitation has opened up a space for nurses' and occupational therapists' professional projects. Using historical data, an analysis of the policy-making process behind welfare programs central to the professionalization of nursing and occupational therapy is presented. The time period covered is, in the case of nurses, the larger part of the twentieth century, while the modern history of occupational therapists first began in the 1940s. Special emphasis is placed on the corporative nature of the Swedish welfare state and the professional strategies utilized by nurses and occupational therapists in their struggle for jurisdiction. In the article, politicization is identified as a core strategy by which female-dominated welfare state occupations in Sweden have tried to gain influence over the welfare policy-making process and their occupations' jurisdiction.
在本文中,我们探讨了瑞典医疗保健和康复领域的福利政策如何为护士和职业治疗师的专业发展项目开辟了空间。利用历史数据,本文分析了护理和职业治疗专业化核心福利项目背后的政策制定过程。就护士而言,所涵盖的时间段是20世纪的大部分时间,而职业治疗师的现代史则始于20世纪40年代。特别强调了瑞典福利国家的社团性质,以及护士和职业治疗师在争取管辖权斗争中所采用的专业策略。在本文中,政治化被视为瑞典以女性为主的福利国家职业试图对福利政策制定过程及其职业管辖权施加影响的核心策略。
